Subject: ->eof does not work
Unlike seek and tell, which are part of the IO::Seekable role and not the normal IO::Handle role, the ->eof method IS part of the normal IO::Handle role, and critical when working with handles in several context. Most specifically, the lack of a working implementation means it is not possible to tell the EOF state of an IO::Zlib without pulling a line off it.

off it. I believe this was fixed some months ago in the 1.05 release of Zlib, but I can't see any way to close this bug so hopefully somebody who knows the right magic foo will see this comment and do it for me...

Looks like I've worked out how to close it now... Why does perl have to use weird software nobody's ever seen before for everything...
